Yess!

Thanks watchdog and williams2.

Have now a suitable and decent VLC running (many complaint errors if run from command line), but enough for playing and what I want.

Sound OK setting alsa preference well, and found the mistery of 'file:///root/%24%40' editing the vlc.desktop item in usr/share/applications where line 144 reads: Exec=/usr/bin/vlc --started-from-file "$@"
cut the --started option, that's all.

And... a new step forward: How about VLC 3.0.7.1 ?

To be continued.

i dont think udevd is initialised properly in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit

there are no /dev/disk/by-id/ symlinks , despite the fact that there is a rule /lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules to create it, i also checked by putting my own .rules file in /etc/udev/rules.d and it fail to do anything for some reason on boot , you can fix this by doing a

Hi,
udevd deamon is properly initialised in my machine; /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, no need /dev/disk/by-id/ symlinks.
U can access via command line but udev is not implemented and udevadm is.
You need previously copy this commands as new to /bin folder and don't care about missing links. So udev is active as can see in Task Manager.

May be is not clean init but it works.

I need help with ffmeg. I want to stream to facebook but with the new changes in facebook live a ssl enabled ffmpeg is needed. Who could be in a position to compile one for me. I use bionicpup64 and lxbionic32. Reference - https://www.iiwnz.com/compile-ffmpeg-with-rtmps-for-facebook/?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C9854577403

Just a heads up that wvdial has problems in Bionicpup64 8.0 CE. Neither the puppy connection wizard, nor wvdial directly can tether to my 3G cell phone. I get this:

-- EDIT: nevermind, I downloaded the kernel sources and compiled the l2tp module, works flawlessly.

-- EDIT2: I got also the .deb wireguard packages for ubuntu bionic fromthe official repository. In can confirm they work as expected, after compiling the module (the source will be in /usr/src after installing the .DEB).

I am trying to use a l2tp_eth "pseudo-wire" tunnel for my homelan, from Alpine Linux to a Puppy Bionicpup64 box.

I can't find the l2tp_eth module anywhere in bionicpup64:

root# modprobe l2tp_eth
modprobe: FATAL: Module l2tp_eth not found in directory /lib/modules/4.19.23

root# uname -a
Linux ImmClient 4.19.23 #1 SMP Tue Feb 19 15:07:58 GMT 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_6

Do I have to recompile ALL the kernel just to get this little module ? I also checked various .sfs with modules for this kernel 4.19.23, but no luck.

Since those modules are really tiny (few KB) , I wonder why they are not included by default. They are useful for a lot of situations.

Tried also the ubuntu modules, but I get the "wrong executable" error when modprobing them.

Also, any idea where I can find the wireguard module/package/binary ?

Thanks a million.

I tried using System Info to get the system specs but it just hangs. In Task Manager lsusb is driving CPU usage to 16% and I couldn't even kill it.
System specs: Intel Ci5 8250U,Nvidia MX150 8GB RAM
Only the USB drive used to boot Puppy is connected besides a mouse.
Bionicpup64 8.0. I used Rufus to create the bootable USB.
Restart or Shutdown doesn't work either. I have to press down the power button to switch off.
Save file creation gets stuck always no matter the size.
Slacko Puppy 6.3.2 got stuck in video adaptor issue.
